Methods:From April 2018 to April 2019, 30 patients with primary frozen shoulder admitted and treated in Wenzhou Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine were selected in theresearch.According to different admission time, they were divided into observation group and control group, with 15 patients in each group.The control group was treated with warm acupuncture and moxibustion, while the observation group was combined with massage.The total effective rate and VAS pain score after treatment were compared and observed.
Results:The total effective rate in the observation group was 93.33%, which was higher than 73.33% in the control group (χ2=3.294, P<0.05). The VAS score of the observation group was (1.05±0.22)points after treatment, which was lower than (3.13±0.43)points of the control group, the difference between the two groups was statistically significant(t=2.493, P=0.000).
